1 | Does Disability Correlate With Impairment After Hand Injury? | DoD PRF (Psychosocial RF) | Background: Any loss or deviation in body function and structure is considered impairment, whereas limitations on activities are fundamental to the definition of disability. Although it seems intuitive that the two should be closely related, this might not be the case; there is some evidence that psychosocial factors a... |

The mean age at surgery was 56.8 years (18-75.9 years) and mean body mass index was 27.6 kg/m2 (range, 19-41 kg/m2). The mean follow-up time was 202 days. The mean Harris hi... |
0 | GH in combination with bisphosphonate treatment in osteogenesis imperfecta | Distal Radius Fractures | Objective: To verify the effects of bisphosphonates (Bps) in combination with recombinant human GH (rGH) in pediatric osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) patients; we focused on possible improvement of bone mineral density (BMD), projected bone areas, growth velocity, and fractures risk. Design: A randomized controlled 1-year... |
0 | Survival and safety of exemestane versus tamoxifen after 2-3 years' tamoxifen treatment (Intergroup Exemestane Study): a randomised controlled trial | Management of Hip Fractures in the Elderly | Background: Early improvements in disease-free survival have been noted when an aromatase inhibitor is given either instead of or sequentially after tamoxifen in postmenopausal women with oestrogen-receptor-positive early breast cancer. However, little information exists on the long-term effects of aromatase inhibitors... |
0 | MR imaging of the elbow: A spectrum of common pathologic conditions | The Treatment of Pediatric Supracondylar Humerus Fractures AUC | The following pictorial essay is a review of common elbow pathology as seen on elbow MR imaging.

0 | Bone biopsies and serum vitamin-D levels in patients with hip fracture | Management of Hip Fractures in the Elderly | To assess the correlation between osteoid and vitamin D in patients with a proximal femoral fracture, bone biopsies of the fracture site and the iliac crest were studied; and vitamin-D levels were measured in fasting blood taken on the day of admission. No osteomalacia was found at either site in any of the 95 patients... |
1 | Evaluation of meniscal tears: fast spin-echo versus conventional spin-echo magnetic resonance imaging | AMP (Acute Meniscal Pathology) | RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: We compared the performance of fast spin-echo (FSE) with conventional spin-echo (CSE) magnetic resonance (MR) imaging sequences in the detection of meniscal tears.
METHODS: Seventy-three patients underwent MR examination of the knee for suspected internal derangement. Each patient was scanned ... |
0 | Hip fracture risk in statin users--a population-based Danish case-control study | Management of Hip Fractures in the Elderly | Based on animal studies, statins (3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase inhibitors) have been suggested as potential agents in the treatment of osteoporosis. In some epidemiological studies, statins have been associated with a reduced fracture risk. Our objective was to examine associations between statin tre... |
0 | Tears of the medial collateral ligament: magnetic resonance imaging findings and associated injuries | AMP (Acute Meniscal Pathology) | For 23 patients with a surgically proven tear of the medial collateral ligament the findings from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the knee were evaluated retrospectively. MRI revealed the tear in all cases, although when the injury was severe, distinguishing high-grade partial tears from complete tears was difficul... |
0 | Fatigue, psychosocial adaptation and quality of life one year after traumatic brain injury and suspected traumatic axonal injury; evaluations of patients and relatives: a pilot study | DoD PRF (Psychosocial RF) | OBJECTIVE: To describe fatigue and its relationship to cognition, psychosocial adjustment, quality of life (QoL), work status and relative's experiences 12 months after suspected traumatic axonal injury (TAI).
METHODS: Eighteen patients were assessed with the Daily Fatigue Impact Scale (D-FIS), the Barrow Neurological ... |
0 | Postoperative flexion analysis of 3 rotating-platform knee designs | OAK 3 - Non-arthroplasty tx of OAK | Rotating-platform knee implants have successively undergone modifications to improve postoperative flexion. The cruciate-sacrificing Low Contact Stress (LCS) implant (DePuy Orthopaedics, Inc, Warsaw, Indiana) was modified into the cruciate-substituting PFC Sigma RP (ΣRP) implant and further into the PFC Sigma RPF (ΣR... |
0 | Critical shoulder angle is associated with full-thickness rotator cuff tears in patients with glenohumeral osteoarthritis | Glenohumeral Joint OA | BACKGROUND: Higher critical shoulder angle (CSA) is correlated with rotator cuff tears (RCTs), whereas lower CSA is associated with glenohumeral osteoarthritis (OA). Our goal was to investigate whether patients with concurrent glenohumeral OA and full-thickness RCTs demonstrate a higher CSA than patients with OA alone.... |
0 | Determination of Normal Reference Values for Meniscal Extrusion Using Ultrasonography During the Different Range of Motion: A Pilot, Feasibility Study | AMP (Acute Meniscal Pathology) | OBJECTIVES: It is essential to know the normal extrusion measures in order to detect pathological ones.

METHODS: The amount of anterior and posterior portion of meniscal extrusion... |
0 | Altered loading during walking and sit-to-stand is affected by quadriceps weakness after total knee arthroplasty | Surgical Management of Osteoarthritis of the Knee CPG | Purpose: Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) successfully reduces pain, but has not achieved comparable improvements in function. We hypothesized that quadriceps strength affects performance by altering loading and movement patterns during functional tasks. Methods: Fourteen subjects with isolated, unilateral TKA were tested... |
